However, it seems it wasn’t enough as the 23-year-old aspiring rapper hired a hitman, Eugene Spencer, to kill his mother.
According to Chicago Times, the upcoming rapper was on Friday found guilty of the murder-for-hire last year and sentenced to spend the rest of his life behind bars. The gunman, Eugene Spencer, was sentenced to 100 years.
“The word is ‘matricide,’ meaning murder of one’s own mother, is a big offense,” Cook County Judge Stanley Sacks who jailed the men said.
Yolanda Holmes was shot and stabbed to death by the hitman after he was ordered by Wilson to “make sure the b*tch is dead.”
It was revealed that Spencer drove with Wilson’s girlfriend to the rapper’s mum’s home to kill her.
Spencer reportedly shot Yolanda Holmes as she slept in her bed, then struggled with her boyfriend, knocking him unconscious, before returning to stab Holmes.
After her death, Wilson wasted no time in collecting the money in his mother’s bank accounts which he used to fund his extravagant lifestyle.
In a YouTube video that was played for the jury, Wilson withdrew thousands of dollars from a bank and tossed loads of cash to a crowd of people he said were his fans and wrote, “I am Nicki and I give back to my fans and my supporters its only right.”
Cook County Judge Stanley Sacks said: “Whatever he wanted, his mother gave to him. A car. A job. One could say he was spoiled.“She gave Qaw’mane life, and it was his choice to take it away from her,”
When asked if he had anything to say before Sacks made his ruling, He said” “I just want to say, nobody loved my mother more than me,” he said. “She was all I had. That’s it.”
